BRANDRETH obviously died w it b a lie on hii tongue, prompted, no doubt, by revenge, by the instigation of wicked Coadjutors, and by hatted of that Go vernment which he At temp , ed to ()vellum. Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON last night pre sented three Petitions from persons arrested at Glasgow for seditious and treasonable practices. Those Petitions alluged that the persons from whom they came had been art ested under the HABEAS CORPUS SUSPENSION ACT, bud been, for a long time, &privet! of fire and of food, and had suffered other severe hardships. b prove the ig norance, as well as the falsehood of these allega tions, in the first place it must be observed that the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act did not extend to Scotland, and Mr. FINLAY, the respected and re spectable Member for Glasgow, not only stilted that their other complaints were utterly unfounded, but that the very Petitioners had expressed their grati tude to the Magistrates of that place for the hit mane tieatment which they had experienced dur ing their confinntent. The Honourable Member condoned, with solemnly declaring, that " there was not one word of truth in these Petitions from the beginning to the end." Now what must be thought of those who submit to be the vehicles of such falsehoods, as a very slight in quiry would have enabled thew to detect ? Must it not evince a lamentable proof of the effects of party zeal, which can tender men blind to troth, pervett their intellects, and expose them to gene ral ridicule and contempt, as well as to serious reprobation. The report which has been some time in circu lation, and which has been noticed in ant Paper, implying the intended removal of Lord MELVILLR from the Admiralty, in order to succeed the Mar (pis of HASTINGS in the Government of India, we ate disposed to think is without foundation, as we have reason to beliese that the latter high appoint ment had been imire than once offered to Lord IIELVILL6 before, but was declined. The talents, judment, and experience of the Noble Viscount, quality him to do honour to himsclf, and to render eminent services to rite Empire in any situation, but as he presides over onr great National bit vark,antl follows the steps of his wise, jndicions, and in: inred Father, in his conduct or it, we shall rejoice to find that it is likely to continue under the same able, vigilant, and steady .uperiutendance. Since we wrote the above article, which we will not cancel, becauie tt exp►resses our sincere opinion and honest conviction, we have hero enabled mos? POSITIVELY to state, that there is no truth iR the rumour ot the intended retirement ot Viscount MELVILLE from the post which he fills so much to his own honour and the advantage ot the station. The Paris Papers of Tuesday last, which were due this warning, have not come to hand. Haitch, the Murderer, who was to have taken bit trial this morning at the Ohl Bailey, for the wilful m►►rder of Mary Mining, on the evening of Saturday last, (the particulars of which have al ready appeared in this Paper), this morning, at half-past eight o'clock, was discovered to have taken a razor and nearly severed his head fron► his body. The wretch, it seems, had himself shaved last nighr, but how, or in what manner, be had got possession of the deadly instrument, we have not yet been able to learn. A Jury has beets summoned to investigate the cause of the Prisouer's death.—Tl►e Trial of Evans, for the murder of his Wife, commenced at 10 o'clock this day.. It had not finished when our Paper went to press. We can now state with confidence, that the destination of lime of battle ships, which we mentioned some days ago, is Copenhagen ; and the objeet is to tiring to Englsnd her Serene Highness the Pt incess of DENMARK, the affianced Bride of the Duke of CLARENCE. His Royal Highness the Duke recommends his friend, Ad miral Sir IlEsitty BLacKwoon, 40 the agtegable duty of Conducting the expedition ; but we un derstand that since the littler (or the equipment Of, the ships was given, a demur to the union has oc curred—not owing to the indisposition of the Royal Duke.—( Chronicle.) We have received an official information from a Solicitor, i❑ the behalf or Francis Ward, that he has already commenced an action against a con temporary Journal for a statement similar to that made by Lord CASTLEREAGII, upon which we commented in our number (if yesterday : and that the Journal above-mentioned, after a delay of nearly three weeks to consider the plea, had not entered a justificotion. We ate therefore request ed to warn the Public 4 ‘ from a belief in Lord CASTLEREAGH'S statement made against Francis Ward's character, upon which a Jury ►sill be call ed upon dccide at Guildhall early the ensuing v.eck."—(Tintts.)

Amid the Guardian Rocks that grace the had, !ire SrLAXSPEARE'S Cliff pre-muinently stand, And awful grandeur on the scene bestow, While patriot hearts with exultation glow. Though GREECE may vaunt her old poetic Baod, And ItomE a rival fame with pride demand, Our Bard can nobler charms o'er ALclos throw, And if rude 'nine, or fury of the Main, His hopour'd Cliff should level to its base, Still shall the acetic its dignity retain, The Muse shall cast around a classic 7rlce, Nor shall unhallow'd steps ',he spot profane, But INSPIKATIOV hover o'er the place.
